Tony Kanaan, #11 Team 7-Eleven Dallara/Honda/Firestone
"I would be happy to put the #11 Team 7-Eleven car in the first three rows. It's hard to
say where we'll be because there were so many cars out there today that even if you tried to do
a qualifying simulation on your own, you might be getting a draft from someone so you're only
fooling yourself. We'll see. We'll shoot for the first three rows. I've never started worse than fifth
since I've been coming here and I'd like to keep that tradition. But if we can't we'll just make it up
in the race."
